Specialty Cleaning BPA - DOVER AFB

The 436th Contracting Squadron at Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, is conducting a sources-sought announcement to identify qualified small business contractors capable of providing specialty cleaning services under a potential Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA). The services required include mold abatement, HVAC duct cleaning, pressure washing, aircraft interior cleaning, emergency response to biohazards and water damage, and related remediation activities, all to be performed on-site at Dover AFB. Performance must adhere to industry standards such as NADCA Standard ARC 2025, IICRC S500 for water restoration, and IICRC mold remediation protocols, with all personnel required to hold ACAC certifications including Certified Mold Remediator Supervisor (CMRS) and Certified Mold Remediator (CMR), and be members of the Indoor Air Quality Association. Contracting firms must self-identify as small businesses under the NAICS code 561720 (Janitorial Services) and confirm their current size status and socioeconomic qualifications, as this is a total small business set-aside under FAR 19.5. All responders must submit completed bid schedules, certifications, and business size information via email to the Contracting Specialist and Contracting Officer by May 13, 2026. The work is subject to stringent DoD security requirements, including mandatory Criminal Background Investigations for unescorted base access, compliance with OPSEC and antiterrorism protocols, use of Dover AFB-issued contractor badges, adherence to a 100% shred policy for sensitive documents, and strict escort requirements in controlled areas. Contractors must also comply with employment eligibility verification, submit monthly labor reports via the CMRA portal, and coordinate final inspections with the Contracting Officer Representative. No formal contract clauses, pricing, or evaluation factors are included at this stage, as this is strictly a market research effort to determine industry capability and interest prior to any future award.
